About this artwork
Iris is the Greek messenger of the gods who descends to the people on the rainbow (later replaced by Hermes). Even with Rosenheim, despite the helmet, there is nothing warlike about her; on the contrary, the hint of a smile seems to be recognizable. On the side, the helmet shows an eye with a yellowish iris - the iris of the eye is named after this goddess. The yellow could again allude to the light-eyedness of some goddesses described by Homer.

« For me, making art is ... searching for meaning ... finding meaning ... giving meaning. »
Bernd Rosenheim is an experienced painter, draftsman, and sculptor based in Germany whose cites his work with Western/Eastern mythology and art as having strongly inspired and shaped him for decades. As such, mythical figures, the face, its veiling by masks and helmets, as well as structured abstract forms apprear frequently in his pieces. Rosenheim's painterly compositions are most often created with oils, acrylics, and India ink on canvas or paper.
